Morning flight to Blighty and all that can be said for it was it was on time! Food fit for KAR and no wine whatsoever either red or white! Just over half full, no wonder they are loosing money!

Thanks

First they stopped serving wine in bottles and you had a plastic cup of wine out of a box. Now you get bugger all. Thats customer service CTA style.

Soon the only cutting back left will be to remove the bloody wings!.How come these idiots fly into two airports in london whilst cutting flights to manchester to one a week?

Yes d.c., but, "why" is my point, would it not be better to cut at least one of the london flights and, put on another northern flight. Does not have to be manchester, could be liverpool where landing fees are 40% of manchester, thus saving costs. There are plenty of air traffic slots into liverpool so, it would be no big deal, and easily done.

Turkish have also cut Manchester flights from 10 a week to 5 a week for the winter. Could be something to do with supply and demand.

Richard Message 12. It is not light paperwork, and March would be too late anyway.

It does seem that there are more people here now from the north of england than from the south so stands to reason to have extra flights to Manchester etc. CTA doing flights to Istanbul for 59tl so how can the food be any good on board best to not give out any food free, like pegasus.

tarry67 how boring if all the airlines were the same - people would have nothing to complain about they would all be just as bad as each other the only competition would be who could become worse!

Hector - they would not and I am not just talking Cyprus or TRNC but UK & worldwide air travel would become so boring that you might get on a train again.
